Right now I am waiting for Jeremy to get home. He has been gone for the weekend with some guys from the church for a retreat. So not too much has gone on lately, we are honestly just ready to come home. We do love it here, the weather is usually great, the church is awesome and the friends we have made here we will miss a lot, but it's not home. I find that home comes up daily, if not hourly now. It is starting to get warm again though so I'm sure once it is beach weather again we will be distracted with all the sun.
Something fun that we did do recently though is go to the Perth Royal Show. It's very similar to Playland and the PNE back home. Our wonderful friend Lisa thought that we needed to see it so she bought us tickets and we spent the whole day there. It was so much fun. I love seeing all the farm animals and exhibits. We didn't go on any rides though because you had to pay $9 per ride! Ridiculous or what!? Jeremy told me while we were their that he has never been the Playland or the PNE. Can you believe that!? He has never seen Super Dogs or gone on the old wooden roller coster. So we added that to the long list of things we want to do when we get home. Also on that list, seeing more of Canada especially British Columbia. Friends of our from Perth recently got back from their honeymoon in BC, Alberta and San Fran. Their photos of BC and Alberta are amazing and I realized that I haven't been to any of the places they went to. I just went to Whistler for the first time last month when I was home for a friends wedding. And I was just saying that it was crazy that Jer had never been to the PNE! I think we are both crazy for not appreciating what wonderful things we have to do and see back home. So for all you who are like me and have traveled overseas but never seen their own back yard, check it out and I think you will find you might never want to leave.
